[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1308096, member: 14668"] I accidentally ran a 6' long, 60 lb. piece of steel bar stock through the passenger side windshield one time when I was trying to manhandle it out the side door. This was 20 yrs ago in a P-800; these cars didn't have little side windows like the new ones do, the rear view mirrors were mounted far enough forward that you looked at them thru the windshield. The entire side of the windshield was crunched up to the point that I couldn't see thru it at all and had no way to use my passenger side mirror. I was in the middle of doing pickups with an air drop 45 minutes away. Solution? I borrowed a hammer from the stop I was at and busted the entire passenger side windshield out, tossed the debris into a dumpster, and kept on driving without a windshield on that side. Fortunately it wasn't raining. I wrote "replace windshield" on the DVIR that night and was complimented by my center manager for my resourcefulness the next day.l [/QUOTE]
